by Gov. Tom Varner

Transmission is instantaneous is most incidents. Accuracy is achieved because everyone gets the same message and it is not filtered through other people. They save trees.

The Kiwanis Club of Suburban Frederick recently provided assistance to Hope Alive in Sabillasville, MD. Hope Alive is a non-profit Christian ministry that offers transitional home and support services for women and their children. The Kiwanians spent the day weeding, landscaping, cleaning the flower beds, tilling the playground mulch, and removing and repairing fencing. "We cannot fully express our thanks to the Kiwanis Club of Suburban Frederick. They were so pleasant, happy and willing to work," said Missy Miller, Operations Manager.

Members of the Wilmington Kiwanis and members of 2 of their 5 Key Clubs in April pulling a C-110 Air Force Transport plane in a fund raiser for Special Olympics. Wilmington Kiwanis with Key Clubs pulled the multi ton C-110 Transport 12 feet in 7.58 seconds! While this was not "good" enough for first place, it was "good" enough to help contribute to the $28,000 raised for Special Olympics at the New Castle National Guard Air Force Base in Delaware. "Good" job Wilmington! |
